Biniyam Shibre and Ariela Weinberg are living in the U.S. after leaving Ethiopia and Kenya
Biniyam and his fiancee, Ariela Weinberg, were living in Biniyam’s native country of Ethiopia before she left for the states with their son, Avi.
Avi needed hernia surgery and Ariela felt more comfortable having it done in the U.S. although she received a lot of backlash for her decision.
Ariela left Biniyam in Ethiopia while she and Avi stayed with her family in New Jersey during surgery and recovery.
However, Ariela suspected that Biniyam was unfaithful in Ethiopia while she was away. Biniyam turned his phone off for hours and Ariela heard of girls visiting their home while she was in the U.S.
The couple then temporarily moved to Kenya, which is where they met, to sort out their relationship and because it avoided any issues with Biniyam’s visa.
90 Day Fiance: The Other Way viewers have been curious about the status of Biniyam and Ariela’s relationship as well as their living arrangements.
Biniyam recently told his fans that he “didn’t know” his fiancee Ariela’s whereabouts and sparked rumors he was living in New Jersey with a video he shared on TikTok.
The good news is, we now know that Biniyam and Ariela are together in America and putting in the work to make their relationship last. Welcome to America, Biniyam!
90 Day Fiance: The Other Way airs on Sundays at 8/7c on TLC and Discovery+.
